Seeds: Growing a WARM Tomorrow

WARM’s fundraiser auction held in December was a great success. We sold over 100 pieces of art, added almost $5000 to our coffers, and increased our paid memberships by 20%. Many thanks go to the volunteers who gave countless hours to make such a wonderful evening possible, to the over 85 artists who contributed their work, to donors who contributed items for the live auction, and to everyone who attended. With your help we are closer than ever to re-establishing a WARM gallery presence in the Twin Cities, and we hope in the coming year to make that dream a reality
